Extremely Good Photomicrographs

I find that this text/atlas is perhaps THE best I have seen for identification of the various constituents seen in urine/body cavity fluids. This book is currently used in the MLT program as well as used in a large 900 bed hospital. I highly recommend this book.

excellent resource

This is indeed a book any urine dept should have on the reference shelf. The atlas is outstanding and the text is extremely informative and educational.
